Belvidere 30 β Yesterdays
Image from Library of Virginia, 1965 Richmond Esthetic Survey and Historic Building Survey.
I mapped a whole collection of Oregon Hill from the 1960s and could not figure out what church was in the background of this picture yesterdays.maprva.org/224/
Once I did, the pic of the fire was one of the first related images I could find. More info here: www.oregonhill.net/2012/01/21/l...

We take our maps pretty seriously π§
This one was included in a Richmond collection... just not the right Richmond yesterdays.maprva.org/16610/
This was also included, but it's Richfield Springs, NY, not Richmond, VA yesterdays.maprva.org/32972/

Have you seen the pic from this same spot/time looking the other direction? One of a raft of (presumably civil rights-related) arsons on Richmond churches in the 1960s.
